6,000,000 Minutes on the Clock

42 HOURS A WEEK
x 48 WEEKS A YEAR
x 50 YEARS
= 100,800 HOURS or
6,048,000 MINUTES
(the above is written on a blackboard)

Start at age 18 (college counts), retire at age 68 (that's optimistic for anyone who is under age 40), and you'll likely get to "6,000,000 minutes."

The tragedy for most people isn't how much they work, but how little they get from it. Too many people (maybe you) derive little satisfaction or sense of purpose from work. And, too many people (maybe you again) will have too little to live on at the end of your "6,000,000 minutes."

If 250 minutes reading this book improves your "6,000,000 minutes" by only 1%, that's a return on your investment of 24,000%.

What are you waiting for?
